FIVE YEARS DOWN THE TRACK...

In November 2004 we started the journey to bring a baby home from China ... five years later, in October 2009, we met Isobel Pingqin.
Our little livewire known as Izzy.

Turning four and feeling poor...

Izzy is very excited about her birthday on Friday.  She will be four (or "sore" as she pronounces it).  We have pass-the-parcel ready for kindy, and had cupcakes ready to bake.  But all will have to go on hold for a week, with suspected pneumonia.
On a brighter note, whilst unpacking Peter found some old wigs from various fancy dress parties.

Some shots of our not so dainty ballerina!





Long time no post!

Seems I've been a bit absent - not much has changed with the house.  We do however have a driveway, which we have been able to drive on for two weeks now.  We have finished all retaining walls outside, now just need grass and plants.  We're a bit over it all and having a few weekends off "outside". 
Inside, my kitchen is now finished.  Our new "bling" was put on the wall two weeks ago, our drinks fridge arrived last week and my rangehood went back up on Sunday.  I always knew I would love the look, but am just so so excited about my bling wall.


Our little "home office" in the cupboard is also now finished and is looking very organised.
The toy room now has all toy boxes labelled (OCDish) and toy room rules.  One way to keep it neat.
